We had some special visitors last week, who gave us the opportunity to come face to face with some prehistoric minibeasts! Jill and Jennifer, authors of the ‘Extraordinary Extinct’ series of books, brought in some of their books to share with us, and allowed us to handle some of their real fossils, which was an amazing experience. We learned about some fabulous fossil finds in our local area, and explored ammonites, belemnites, trilobites and echinoids. We even had a go at making our own belemnites to take home, using cones of paper. Jill and Jennifer very kindly gave us some of their books to keep at Nursery, too – thank you so much! Look out for the ‘Prehistoric Quest’ around Wymondham during the summer holidays.
